BG Plumbing

Tsanko is a true professional in many ways. When I first called, he focused on my issue at first to ensure he understood my problems. He treats you with respect throughout the entire process from phone call to job completion. He is happy to answers your questions. He explains things in detail so I understood. He told me he may need to pressurize the water line to drain it. I thought that was odd. Well he knows what he was talking about as he recognized a potential issue with my water softener system having high pipes and would contain some water even after gravity draining. He has to heat the copper pipe to remove the old faucet and of course the heat was drawing water and cooling the pipe enough to not allow the solder joint to dissolve for old faucet removal. So he brings out a portable unit to get the job done and yes, removed the old faucet just as he analyzed. His timeliness from my first call to actual work start and job completion is superb. He uses products that you would buy for yourself and nothing like the home builders choose. Tsanko replaced my two outdoor faucets with quarter turn ball valve ones. So much easier to turn and no more gaskets .. now that is thinking for the long term. He noticed an issue with our water heater water line not having a valve and explained why it should and answered all my questions again. Of course he added one of quality and ease to use. He works very efficiently and takes care of you throughout the process. His prices are very good and when you add in his professionalism, knowledge, and quality ... would say that is a hard combination to beat ... awesome value indeed! I finally know a Fremont plumber that I will call without hesitation. Thank you Tsanko!

I called BG plumbing to have a gas hookup for my dryer installed, Tsanko
Came out punctually and surveyed the site for hookup. After checking out my existing gas pipe, he explained that I couldn't hook up to my pool gas line because it was too large and my piping for my water heater and stove and furnace plus pool heater basically maxed out my meter and existing line and if he did connect to this, the dryer and other appliances would not work well if they were all running at one time. He also said that the cost of running a line would be less economical than using an electric dryer. I really appreciate the honesty, as he could just have given me a price and done the job leaving me to find the problem later. He also recommended calling pg&e to get a larger meter installed. I will call him for any plumbing jobs that I need. I can understand the five star ratings in his yelp.

The owner Tsanko came to replace a tankless water heater for a house I built in my property. He was exactly on time, courteous, friendly and knowledgeable. He replaced the tankless water heater, pipes, etc., really fast. His prices are so reasonable as he is an honest man doing a hard job. I will always call Tsanko of BG plumbing for all my plumbing needs!

Tsanko came out promptly to replace a broker shower cartridge and handle. When I have a plumbing issue, I call BG Plumbing because the response is prompt, the work is carefully done, and Tsanko does great work and is trustworthy. I'm giving his name and number to all my friends - just hope he doesn't get too busy so that he is available to help me the next time I need him.

The service was expertly done, Tsanko had all the parts needed to repair a non-working water heater, completed the job in less than an hour and called before the appointment and asked if he could arrive early. Finally, since he was so fast he gave a discount on the parts (cost only!!).
Will not bother calling any other plumber in the future.
As several others have said, five stars is not enough!

We are remodeling our bathroom and needed a plumber. After calling a recommended plumber, and fainting over his quote and attitude, - we turned to Yelp to find another plumber. How could we pass up on one that gets 5 stars? We couldn't, and now we know why. Tsanko gave us a quote over the phone. He came out twice to complete our job. Both times he came when he said he would and did an outstanding job. He knows his craft. He has high integrity and is a honest man. His word is good as gold. We will not hesitate to call him when the need arises. 5 stars is the least we could give him. Thanks Tsanko!

I called BG Plumbing because I can hear water drops sometimes from my bathroom, especially at night time. Tsanko answered the phone right away, and arrived in 30 mins as he promised.

He checked the bathroom, nothing is wrong there. And there's no water drops sound too. Tsanko explained the sound might not be from a leaking. But my water usage is way too much more than my neighbors of the same family size. I was suspicious of what he said. Then, he showed me the water meter. It's still. I stared at it for a minute and it's not moving at all. "It should be moving if there was a leaking going somewhere. There is no sense the leaking stops from time to time. It should always be there.". OK, now he completely convinced me. I should look somewhere else for my big water bill but definitely not leaking. Tsanko left his business card and we said good bye to each other. No charge.

That's my experience with Tsanko and his BG Plumbing. Tsanko is very honest, efficient, and willing to help. I will definitely call him again if there really is a plumbing issue. Thank you Tsanko!

I found BG Plumbing and Tsanko through Yelp because of the high ratings, and everyone is right!
I had two 20 year old water heaters, one of them leaking. I decided to replace both of them and called Tsanko for advice. I followed his recommendations and scheduled an appointment.
Tsanko and his helper showed up right on time and completed the installation much faster than I expected. Tsanko is very professional, does a quality work and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend him for any plumbing problem. I will deffinitly use him if I have any problems in the future.
